The age-old adage First Do No Harm should be the tempering goal of not only medicine, but government and industry, especially when they team up to deploy new technologies, set policies and serve the people.

This blog exists to reveal and analyze areas in which these powerful groups are failing to "first do no harm."

Harvard Lecturer Dr. Adlkofer Exposes Corruption in Cell Phone Research


As people trek out early on Black Friday to get deals on iPhones and other wireless stuff, they might want to save those receipts until looking at this video. Most people have heard the research into possible harm from cell phone kinds of radiofrequency emissions is inconclusive. What does this really mean? And why haven't people heard about the peer-reviewed, duplicated biological impacts (including DNA damage) of cell phone-type radiofrequency emissions?

This lecture by Dr. Franz Adlkofer during his Harvard Law School presentation presents facts that expose the power, money and corruption that has been influencing the research. The question is will our assumptions, paradigms and preferences allow us to digest this information, or not?

Here is the introductory blurb:

On Nov. 3, Dr. Franz Adlkofer, former executive director of the VERUM Foundation for Behavior and Environment, spoke to a Harvard Law School audience as part of the lectures and events series hosted by the Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics.

In his lecture, “Protection Against Radiation is in Conflict with Science,” Adlkofer discussed the difficulties he and other scientists face when presenting research on the carcinogenic effects of electromagnetic fields emanating from cell phones. He also discussed the institutional corruption which he says obstructs their research.

EUROPEAN ELECTROSMOG PROTEST in Brussels

In the flyer for the upcoming November 16
EUROPEAN ELECTROSMOG PROTEST in Brussels Professor Olle Johansson states:


Governments and health protection agencies usually hide behind out-of-date “official guidelines” that were drawn up when it was thought that the only way that living organisms could be harmed by electromagnetic radiation was if it was sufficiently strong to cause significant acute heating. And in fluidfilled plastic dolls! This is totally false! There has been countless papers in scientific journals over several decades that show very clearly that there are non-thermal biological effects (some of them extremely harmful) of electromagnetic fields that are well below the official safety guidelines.

The protest is organized by StopUMTS.be, and their points sound very familiar:

WE PROTEST <-> THE EXPONENTIAL RISE OF ELECTROSMOG


WE PROTEST <-> THE EMF-EXPOSURE AT CURRENT LEVELS IS A THREAT TO PUBLIC HEALTH

 
WE PROTEST <-> THE EU-CONFERENCE ON EMF & HEALTH (HELD AT 16 &
17 NOV.) LACKS SCIENTISTS WITH OPPOSING VIEWS

Their 5 demands for all European countries should be OUR demands here in the U.S., which are based on the Precautionary Principle, out of respect for people's human rights to be protected from harm:


1. THE BIOINITIATIVE LIMIT OF 0.6 V/M
2. WHITE ZONES: NO CELL PHONES< WIFI AND DECT_WIRELESS PHONES IN PLACES WITH CHILDREN OR ELDERLY (SCHOOLS< HOSPITALS< CHURCHES,...)
3. RECOGNITION OF ELECTROHYPERSENSITIVITY AS A FUNCTIONAL IMPAIRMENT (as in Sweden)
4. NO 4G/LTE/WIMAX (transmitter masts or antennas)
5. NO "SMART" WIRELESS ENERGY METERS

Good work, StopUMTS.be! This worldwide movement can only grow as more people wake up to the reality and risks of further wireless explosion in their living and working areas.

Technology Industry Workers must Hide Microwave Sensitivity

This four part series at stopsmartmeters.org inteviews people in the wireless industry who have realized that wireless emissions are affecting their health. You'll get a peek at the world inside the industry where engineers with no biological training or awareness blindly rush ahead, creating products that have not been tested for safety. Most of these wireless workers are basically mobots for the industry, with a dangerous blindspot. Check out this excellent series (in process):

Shut Up and eat your nanochips

Smart meters can sing you a pretty song as you eat your daily bowl of government condoned nanochips.

Smart Meters Just the first Piece of the PLAN

This utility industry article celebrates the fact that smart meters finally have "healthy penetration rates" across the U.S., who do not want these meters pulsing radiation into their homes 24/7.

Here is their chart showing projected growth:


The benefits to the utilities are listed: Utilities also are drawn by the prospects of reducing labor hours by remotely addressing service orders such as power connect and disconnect, outage detection and other power delivery issues.

And the article describes how smart meters are just a piece of the whole puzzle - which most everyday people have no idea is gradually being put in place.

Smart meters are not the end goal, but they are important. The goal for most utilities is to tackle inevitable external changes that if unaddressed will compromise grid reliability and availability. Noticeable external changes include the anticipation of electric vehicles, federal and state pressure to accommodate renewable power, and the growing gap between power supply and demand.
Smart meters are just a piece. Real-time visibility and data collection will set the platform for engaging customers in time-of-use and dynamic pricing programs. Eventually the transition to an AMI that integrates meter data management and potentially distribution automation will provide a more complete picture. Recognizing this development, meter vendors are positioning themselves more as holistic solution providers that include consulting services to integrate meters with home area networks, demand response offerings, distribution and substation automation and utility back-office applications. Offerings most likely will include meter data management systems and customer-oriented appliances, and they will support on-network and communication infrastructure.
For anyone who cannot tolerate wireless emissions, or who values their privacy, the Master Grid envisioned is a nightmare. Remember, smart meters are the first piece, a good place to resist before the grid is ingrained.

And look out because smart meters are definately on the move:
...smart meter deployments are underway and utilities are moving to the next strategy for implementing consumer service and demand response programs for residential customers. This will allow utilities to demonstrate what smart meter investments are worth.

Frost & Sullivan identifies 2012 and 2013 as critical years for expanding demand response programs because major regions including California and Texas will be close to completing smart meter deployments. The three largest California utilities—San Diego Gas & Electric Co., PG&E, and Southern California Edison—together have installed more than 11 million smart meters and expect to complete installation of a total of 24 million by the end of 2012. Similarly, the three largest Texas utilities—Oncor, American Electric Power.
